Ryan Brazier won the 2nd annual title and holds the shield off a -7 handicap (-8 this time), but the defence starts here. Players are awarded either minus, even or plus handicaps for each match. Each match is first to 7 points, with players starting each one on their individual handicap appropriately picked by me. A knockout draw follows with best of 3 sets after initial group stage for the top 8 players.
